On the way

Well we are on our way. Here I am sitting in Heathrow's Terminal 5, tapping away on my netbook, after discovering a pay as you go internet service provider. Oksy is doing sudokus and I have been doing email. We got up at a reasonable time this morning and our airport taxi arrived punctually to take us painlessly to Manchester Airport. Because everything went like clockwork, we had ages to wait around in Manchester airport, enough time to read as much of the Guardian as I wanted and to do the sudoku and quick crossword. The "snack" on the plane to Heathrow was a cup of tea, coffee or juice and a muesli bar - not quite enough for us as we hadn't had time or the inclination to have breakfast before we left. Now, unbelievably, we are actually looking forward to whatever is offered us on the next flight !
